Plant Sales and Workshops
Spring Native Plant Sale Coming Soon!
Generous winter rains have turned everything green again. That means it’s time for spring planting. Start making a shopping list! We have been working hard to collate a terrific selection of plants for our spring sale, including some hard-to-find spring bulbs we have not been able to offer before.
The Plant Sale will be held in two ways this year.
Online Orders
Online sales opens: Thursday April 3rd at 6pm
Online sales close: Monday April 7th at 6pm
Pickup for prepaid on-line orders: Saturday April 12th from 10:30am to 1:30pm at Bon Air Shopping Center, on Sir Francis Drake Blvd just off 101 in Greenbrae.
The Plant Sale can be accessed here. It will go live at 6pm on April 3rd.
The online sale will be available to access from our website www.cnpsmarin.org under the tab STORE or from the home page. It won’t go live until 6pm on the 3rd so don’t be surprised if there are no plants listed before then. We’ll send everyone an email closer to the date.
We will have a wide range of perennials and annuals—old favorites and some new choices as well. All of these species offer great options for increasing the biodiversity in your yard.
In-Person Plant Sale
We will also be holding an in-person plant sale on Saturday April 12th at the same time and location in the Bon Air Center parking lot. What will be for sale are the species that didn’t sell out through the online sale so it will not be a comprehensive selection. If you really want to be assured of getting something specific, please order early through the online site. If you didn’t get a chance to order online or you would like to see the plants in person, come browse. We will be accepting cash and Visa credit cards.
Note: We will not be offering seeds for sale but they can be purchased directly from Home Ground Habitats here.

Native Options for Small Trees and Shrubs

Gardening on the West Coast
By Laura Lovett, CNPS Marin Plant Sale Committee As all of you who live in our cooler coastal climate know, it can be frustrating to go native plant shopping. Plants that require full sun and heat just limp along in the damper weather. However, many species have...
